SONIC PRIME "AVOID THE VOID" STORYBOARD COMPARISON

Inspired by what some of my colleagues have posted to Tumblr and IG, I’ve put together this side-by-side comparison of my Sonic Prime storyboards and the final animation. This clip is the climactic ending to “Avoid The Void,” an episode I’m particularly proud of. It’s the first one of Season Two, where Sonic and Shadow finally meet in the Shatterverse. It’s the moment their storyline, which started in Season One, connects and leads to a vicious no-holds-barred punk rock brawl!

I wasn’t supposed to direct this episode, as I had already moved on to direct a Peanuts special for Apple+ (though continued as EP on season two, but not on season three), but this episode fell into my lap due to a glitch in the schedule. So it was Peanuts by day, Sonic by night, with three weeks to build the animatic with the storyboard team. Because we had half the time we usually have, we kept our boards rough, rarely tying down a drawing. Anyway, what’s the point of doing tight drawings when it’s going to be CG, right?

Below, a still from act three of Avoid the Void, when Sonic blasts out of the Ghost World/Ghost Green Hill.

From the early stages, when Man of Action was breaking out this episode, it was clear that this one had the potential to be something big and cinematic. Set in the surreal world of the Shatterspace, it combined weighty emotional drama with intense action. At long last, it was also the big Shadow episode that fans had been patiently waiting for!

The photo below is a screen-cap from a Zoom record of Sonic Prime's "Avoid The Void." All the voice actors are Canadian. While Duncan (one quarter of Man Of Action) and I are in Los Angeles. Seen here are (left to right) Devon Mack, Erik Wiese, Duncan Rouleau, Andrew Duncan, James Corrigall, and Ian "Shadow" Hanlin.

Below are some storyboard panels I drew from the opening sequence from Avoid The Void. I had to add spot color because I wanted to give the feeling of the void and also because of the different colors of the gateways.

I hope you enjoy this behind-the-scenes look at Sonic Prime.

P.S. A shout-out to the hugely talented STORYBOARD TEAM and ANIMATION CREW! You guys rock!

Mysteries of the Moonshaes Over breakfast, Rivulet told us what she learned about Evelynn's blade and how it had been wielded by many Gods of Death before it was given to Evelynn. We had known of the prophecy - that it was to be bathed in the blood of shadows - but now that prophecy sees a bit more important than before.

We discussed the powerful crystals again and we all agreed, Therein could not collect them all. He was too erratic, bordering on manic last night and we could not trust him entirely. The party agreed Tiri's frosty friend, the Queen of Air & Darkness, definitely shouldn't get them either - and tried to get Tiri to agree but they were cagey about that.

Therein, though, did not like hearing of this possibly betrayal and kicked us out. He'll continue collecting the crystals on his own. And he'll save us all - and we are determined to save him, even if that means saving him from himself.

Hey folks! I'm new to Tumblr, so I'll have to get used to a few things, but here is a quick teaser for an upcoming Cuphead animation I made a few months ago! Its four and a half minutes long, and includes every boss from the game! I'll probably be posting the full thing here at some point, stay tuned!

I've never actually posted anything that isn't an illustration and wanted to try my hand on something new, so here's a rough storyboard of my two ancient babies! I've always imagined White Lily to have just as big of a crush on Pure Vanilla as he does on her except she's the more feeble type and struggles to string her thoughts and feelings together in a way that doesn't make her a flustered mess lol

I have yet to plan when I'm going to polish this since I'm so stacked with schoolwork but ehh, whatever's on the table is available. Eat up PureLily brainrotters~

And here is a final cleanup on the storyboarded movement test on the Spider-Katara character. I might do another to further develop her fighting style since I feel like it doesn't stand out too much from other spider-man characters. And I also need to practice boarding quick movement and timing it, so I will be looking into making more soon.

Of course, the camera movement isn't perfect and I need to develop some more skills in utilizing it without it coming out too sharp, but I sorta like the almost handheld quality that it has right now.

Please leave any critique though, since I am still developing my skills! I would love some advice on how to improve.

Thank you everyone who's been following this character! I really appreciate the investment. I hope you all have a good day!

Tell me about a song you like right now, maybe an animation you just watched that made you think thoughts and feel things

Only Acting by Kero Kero Bonito!! I want to make an animatic for Macaque using this song and some parts of Shadow Play and the s4 special.. although im still mapping it and deciding whether I want to use the radio edit or not lol

#its like really really rough and mostly in my head rn bc i havent drawn lmk in a while so im a little rusty. probably need to rewatch some #eps if i want to get a good idea of what i wanna include. im also debating if i should wait until we get more context on his and wukongs #past before i do anything bc the last thing i wanna do is butcher it @_@... i was thinking of paralleling the song with the pilgrims #but because i dont actually know what HAPPENED or why mac even thinks wukong killed him thats probably gonna be important to know #but its like really cool in my head.. if u listen to the song sarahs voice uses an audio filter and there are some random glitch effects #which could be good visually for macs smoke monster and him fucking with MK in general.. spooky stuff!!!#the lyrics also speak from the pov of a performer which is what reminded me of mac in the first place so it would be fun to animate to #its in my shower playlist so when i listen to it i get really intense visualizing for what scenes i wanna do. hitting 2 birds with 1 stone #actually thats smth i do when i wanna storyboard smth.. i add it to my shower playlist bc thats where i come up with my ideas lol #but yea!!! if i ever get around to doing it id be really excited to share what i have.. i have another in mind with pigsy and MK #which is way shorter and i could probably get it done during my break... ;o)#my art #myart #ask #answered #lmk #lego monkie kid #lmk macaque #six eared macaque #liu er mihou #doodles #yapping
